Primes

• Vaccine Escape
  • Under the barrier, \(S\) reproduces at rate \(w_S\) and \(R\) at rate \(w_R\), with \(w_R > w_S\) because the barrier removes engaged members — the selection differential \(s = w_R - w_S\).

    This sourceSelection coefficient and relative fitness of competing variants under selection.

    Supported in partVerified against the work's full text

    Crow and Kimura define fitness as expected progeny per parent and the selection coefficient s as the difference of two types' fitnesses, giving the formalism but not the barrier application.

    “We define the fitness, or selective value, as the expected number of progeny per parent.”

Domain-specific

• Selection coefficient
  • A selection coefficient is a model parameter expressing relative fitness difference, commonly normalized so a reference genotype has fitness one and a focal genotype has fitness \(w = 1 - s\), where \(s\) is its disadvantage under the declared convention.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's ISBN resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 2 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
